Ever since losing her parents in a tragic accident, Eden's been spending her days with her stepbrother, Thomas, in a run-down, hole-in-the-wall apartment in London. It's there that she meets Sterne Parnell, Thomas's boss and the CEO of a major design firm, who's just shown up at her front door dressed as dashingly as can be. He's convinced that Thomas is trying to elope with Sterne's ward, Carmilla, who's been in his care ever since her father died of a heart attack...and from the contempt in his eyes, it's clear he thinks Eden is Thomas's partner in crime!
